She’s been claimed with his covenient ring and left reeling from his shocking revelations in this marriage-of-convenience romance by New York Times bestselling author Jane Porter.

The last thing she expected?
Her attraction to her convenient husband!

Clare Redmond retreated from the world, pregnant and grieving her fiancé’s death, never expecting to see his ice-cold brother, Rocco, again. She’s stunned when the man who always avoided her storms back into her life, demanding they wed to give her son the life a Cosentino deserves!

Clare accepts—how can she deny her son his birthright? Yet she soon discovers Rocco’s coldness masks an unbridled passion that sets her alight! But discovering the truth behind his unexpected proposal could tear apart her precious newfound family…

She’s ready for a charming Christmas in the English countryside…

It’s almost Christmas and Ella Roberts is ecstatic to be heading to Bakewell to spend the holidays with her sister and brother-in-law, the new Earl and Countess Sherbourne, and represent her family at the English wedding reception. Ella is looking forward to visiting the Sherbourne estate, exploring Bakewell, and experiencing a proper English Christmas. She just has two requests—that she stays in one of the historic cottages at Langley Park, and that the annoying best man not be invited to the reception.

Baird MacLauren was happy to serve as the best man to his closest friend from Trinity College’s wedding. The long weekend spent in the San Juan Islands celebrating his best friend was easy, but getting along with the bride’s mischievous sister who takes nothing seriously was an unexpected challenge. Baird thought he’d never have to see her again…until he spots Ella in Bakewell preparing for the reception.

To Ella’s dismay, her second request isn’t honored and now she’ll be spending Christmas with the most arrogant—and handsome—of Scottish men. Can they both keep their distance or will the magic of the season bring these two together?
